Shanghai on Life

Hello Everyone! Greetings from Lop Buri Thailand! The trip is going great so far. Mostly it’s very hot and very delicious. So far we’ve spent a couple of days in Bangkok in the shelter of a small neighbourhood which is essentially purpose-built for tourists. Can you say American style breakfast! Woohoo! We saw some temples, did some shopping, went on a long-tail boat tour, and ate a lot. After Bangkok we trained up to Ayutthaya, the old capital of Siam, where we rented some old bikes and saw oodles of ruins from the city’s heyday back around the 13-1700’s arena. Today we’re in Lop Buri which is famous for its adorable and mischievous monkeys. I can confirm that they are both. We MIGHT have broken the golden rule of any travel health clinic (don’t feed the monkeys)…but you know they were so cute and they were even selling monkey food at the ticket booth. Cody got half of  his bag mugged by one of the more hardcore monkeys which was both terrifying and hilarious. Some tourist were letting the monkeys climb all over them..I did not allow this. Man oh man were they ever cute though!

Anyway, that’s it for now. Check Cody’s blog for more details :D
